It is pretty much an open secret that NVIDIA will be making its grand announcement of its GeForce RTX 40 Super Series at CES 2024, with three new variations of the RTX 4070, 4070 Ti, and 4080. In light of the news, one retailer in Europe may have been a little too excited and jumped the gun, revealing the supposed laundry list of AIB partner cards to come ahead of the alleged embargoes, and for a card that technically doesn’t exist: an RTX 4090 Super.
The European retailer is a relatively large outlet based in Germany called Proshop, whose site lists down no less than 24 models of an RTX 4090 Super which, again, isn’t part of the upcoming RTX 40 Super Series lineup and doesn’t exist, yet. The page is still up and a bit of sleuthing shows that all the cards listed there are using the product codes and packaging design of currently existing RTX 4090 cards.
Now, this is clearly an error on Proshop’s part and the fact that the page is still up at the time of writing tells us that either folks working at the retailer are still oblivious to the mistake or they know something about the RTX 40 Super Series that we don’t, as well as NVIDIA’s ambition and its propensity to pull an Apple “One more thing…” stunt. That said, the only RTX 4090 model that is planned is the RTX 4090D, which is a variant designed for the Chinese market, to comply with US export restrictions into the country.
In any case, we’ll just have to wait for NVIDIA’s 8 January CES 2024 event but in this case, it is highly unlikely that an RTX 4090 Super is on the table for the event.
